Cask Capital is an investment platform connecting investors with opportunities to own premium whisky casks of the highest quality as well as intrinsically related digital tokenized assets. It positions whisky casks as a tangible alternative asset class and facilitates the purchase of full or fractional ownership of these casks which are often sourced from renowned Scottish distilleries.

‍

A core element of Cask Capital's operation is the use of tokenization utilizing the Hedera blockchain. This allows digital tokenized ownership of real-world casks and enhances transparency and accessibility in the competitive whisky investment market. Once acquired, the physical casks are held in regulated, bonded warehouses in Scotland, where the whisky matures over time. Their clear provenance, aging profile, and value growth make them ideal for fractional ownership on-chain. 

‍

Cask Capital provides services for the management and storage of these exclusive, curated assets which are fully-backed and insured. The value of the investment is tied to the maturation process and market demand for aged whisky.

Quarter Homes is a real estate technology company that modernizes vacation home ownership through a fractional, co-ownership model. It aims to make owning a second home more accessible and affordable by allowing up to four parties to collectively purchase and own a property. Quarter Homes manages the entire lifecycle of the property, including all legal, financial, and property management complexities, to provide a seamless, hassle-free experience.

‍

The company’s innovative model incorporates the Hedera blockchain network, which underpins its operational framework. For each property, a unique LLC is established, and the legal ownership interest is divided into fractions represented as non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on the Hedera Token Service (HTS). This provides each owner with a verifiable, digital proof of ownership. 

‍

Quarter Homes leverages the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) to create a transparent and immutable log of all activities associated with the property. This includes governance, maintenance activities and scheduling, ensuring all parties have a trusted and shared view of the property's status and history.

Qples is a digital promotions platform that specializes in the creation, distribution, and validation of digital coupons for Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) brands and retailers. The platform provides an end-to-end solution for delivering targeted offers to consumers through various channels, including mobile wallets and print-at-home formats.

By leveraging the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS), Qples creates a verifiable and immutable record for each digital coupon it issues. When a coupon is created, its unique data is hashed and submitted to the Hedera public ledger, generating a "proof of state" with a secure, tamper-proof timestamp.

‍

This on-chain verification allows for real-time authentication at the point of sale, effectively preventing fraudulent redemptions and unauthorized duplication through the creation of a universal, single-use digital asset. Its integration with the Hedera blockchain network enables Qples to offer brands a highly secure, transparent, and data-rich promotions solution.
